Once a fence sitter, always a "fence sitter," I guess ...

Cute li'l scalawag, ain't he? And so was his mother, 40-plus years ago!

As you might recall, Senator Obama challenged McCain and all republicans to take public funds for the general election campaign if they won the nomination.

Whoops!

Senator McCain (Admiral McCain's son) called his bluff.

Now, Mr. Obama's refuses to even answer questions as to whether he'll take public funds. Is the mischievous rascal (above) straddling the fence or will he state unequivocally that he will take public funds ... after collecting $50 million in campaign donations last month alone?

Of course, the same question might be asked of Admiral McCain's son today ... now that he's the presumptive Republican nominee ...
